updated grill, possible modding to come!

Well I picked up a used gmc grill to change the look of my truck a wee bit. I'm most likely going to mod this grill with my own inserts like I did with an 03 ram I had a few years back! First pic before, second pic grey, third pic is my homemade inserts in the ram I had. Last pic is freshly finished blacked out grill! Next I have to make the inserts!

I was iffy at first but it looks way better black imo! I'm still thinking about modding it with inserts and paint the gmc logo

I like it!

Well, there's just something about black that stands out, if I ever get mine done I like red so I was thinking it would look pretty good with everything black, grill, bumpers, mirrors, door handles, no chrome ****, at least I visualize it looking good anyhow, lol..

Bad news is I used the wrong pressure plate for the internal hydraulic throw out bearing so the clutch never engages. The trans has to come back out..... :(

fixed the tank selector switch only to find out the ps fuel pump was bad. Bought a new pump and while cleaning tank exterior before install noticed a line in the sending unit was loose. Bought and installed new sending unit so now i have a functional second tank , just in time too as now the fuel filler hose on the ds tank leaks while trying to fill up.

Well found out that I need to use the correct clutch and pressure plate for my trans. Which means I get to change the flywheel and brand new starter too. So I guess I'll just pull the motor again. Glad I beat myself to death in the evenings this past week just to do it all over again.... :(
